White nationalists you say. that why we never see Jared or Ivanka anymore?

There absence is rather conspicuous, isn’t it?

He is going for the England job

Can you imagine how much Trump voters will be triggered by a black woman?

The facist fucks will hate it. Unfortunately though there’s a lot of them!

Never liked him , his policies I didn’t mind too be honest, always reminded me of Mr Grace from are you being served.

I think he’s done very well.

If she's the nominee, who's her running mate?
She won't pick another woman (e.g. Whitmer)
She won't pick another Californian (Newsome), never have both from the same state.
Pete Buttigieg? (smart but unlikely.)

Who?

Double down and go for AOC.

He probably won’t remember this in the morning, the dithering old fool.

Oh do fuck off.

Trump losing to a woman of color would be so delicious. There's no way he could handle that. His head might explode on the spot

I was about to post something along those lines.

Can you imagine how the idiot will react, if he’s beaten by a woman?

And a black woman at that, whom he described, when Biden picked her as his running-mate, as a "monster.

 

[Blue and true]

He's always been a big trump fan just check his old unabbreviated username lol.

Does his current one stand for Pegging President Trump? What a total bellend.

My missus was at a play this afternoon. Texted me to say that when the news came through at intermission the audience stood and shouted "Kamala! Kamala!"

Who?

A black woman and a gay man?

I think the idiot would spontaneously combust, if he lost to that ticket.

Who?

Probably Shapiro or Kelly.

Either could bring with them a crucial swing state (PA or AZ, respectively).

Who?

Buttigieg makes the most sense, in terms of resume/background/charisma.

Unfortunately, and I say this with a heavy heart, I can't see it happening because he is gay. A lot of progress has been made on that front, but there are several groups of voters that simply might not turn up for a gay guy. In particular, minority voters, and conservatives that are anti-Trump, which are two critical votes the dems will need.

I hope I'm wrong cause I do like Buttigieg (as much as one can like a politician), but I don't know.

There's a musical to be made out of that story.

She will hoover up the black, Hispanic and legal immigrant support.

Biden is a good politician and a good man and should be remembered as such.

I always felt he should have handed over the baton to Harris after the first term - I felt they had that as planned - was shocked he carried on and it become painful in the end.

Glad Harris finally given a chance but fear it’s way to late with Trump in the accedency- Harris for me has always had a calm measured appeal to her. Of course no candidate will ever please and she’ll get pelters from the usual suspects but in the voice of Keegan I’d love it if she won, love it.

 

[Vienna_70]

Let’s hope so.

 

[SWP's back]

"President"? Did I miss something?

Apparently

 

[yankblue]

She will hoover up the black, Hispanic and legal immigrant support.

Unfortunately they've become rather reliably conservative. I don't get it either. So yeah, hopefully she can win them back.
